Plantation Shutter Custom Colors

Custom stained and painted plantation shutters are available in unlimited colors outside the range of our standard selections.

Custom Paint Colors ($110 One Time Per Color)

Specify the current paint color code and name from any one of the following manufacturers:

Benjamin Moore
Sherwin-Williams
Dunn-Edwards

We then mix the paint to match a specified color. We do not match dark paint colors.

Paints not within the standard portfolio of the above manufacturers requires a physical sample to match. Mail a smooth, dried unreturnable sample (minimum size 3” x 3”) to the address below.

Dark colors may require an additional fee (25% of the price of the order).

Custom Stain Colors ($110 One Time Per Color)

Stain finishes outside of our 9 standard colors can be achieved by supplying a physical sample. Send a flat 3" x 3" stained light-grained wood sample to the address below. Stain samples with heavy grain (oak, walnut, etc.) are very difficult to match and will not be accepted. We will then match the color and send you a sample for your approval before finishing.

Additional time may be required for production of difficult custom colors.
